BUFFALO, N.Y. – University at Buffalo School of Nursing faculty members Nancy Campbell-Heider and Carla Jungquist have been named to the prestigious 2016 class of American Academy of Nursing (AAN) fellows.

AAN fellows are recognized for their extraordinary nursing careers, and are selected for their contributions to nursing and health care, and their influence on health policy and the health and well-being of patients.

Campbell-Heider and Jungquist will be honored with the 164-member class at the AAN’s annual policy conference Oct. 20-22 in Washington, D.C.

The additions of Campbell-Heider and Jungquist bring the number of current UB School of Nursing faculty who are AAN fellows to five. There are also six emeritus nursing faculty members who hold this honor.

“Induction as an AAN fellow marks a highpoint in the career of nursing leaders and exemplifies the caliber of our faculty and their accomplishments as nursing professionals,” says Marsha Lewis, PhD, professor and dean of the UB School of Nursing.

She also serves on the American Society for Pain Management Nursing’s expert consensus panel charged with writing clinical practice guidelines for monitoring patients at risk of opioid-induced respiratory depression.
